    disgusting to treat him like that.

    absolutely disgraceful.

    since when did we become the club that does this to people? don't answer, I know its when Edin pitched up with his 'new ideas'

    Hendrie, McCall, Colin Doyle and now Killa. all shafted by the overlord. the latter just because he happened to be pals with McCall. and those are only the ones we know of.
    reckon there's at least one or two others.

    As a club, we shouldn't have stories coming out every two or three months about how a player has been mistreated.

    If you don't want a player, that's fine, it's football, that's what the transfer market is for.

    Players and staff should leave amicably and on great terms, always, without exception.

    But we're being run by a Grade A idiot, so that's not the case.

    Disgraceful treatment of a player who gave his all when no-one else did, and we know (however naive you want to be) that this isn't the first, and probably won't be the last. Collins has lied about the Kilgallon situtation, quite simply put. I'm usually one of the so-called "happy clappers" but struggling to see any positives at the moment. Club under a dictatorship, rookie head coach, poor performances, poor results and poor treatment of players.

    ...I honestly believe we'll bring no more than a CM in on loan by the time the window closes, I hope I'm wrong, but have absolutely no faith in the owners right now to get it right.

    It's not really about the individuals - it's how we're treating people in general - whether we'd care as much if it wasn't John Hendrie's son is irrelevant - how we are treating people, and quite openly shafting them doesn't sit right with me. we aren't a club that does that to people.

    In isolation I agree, no big deal.

    Nobody is looking at it in isolation however.

    More fool you if you are.

    No offence.

    Totally agree Jon. Under normal circumstances, the loss of kilgallon might not amount to as much, but when you look at our 'squad depth' and the possible reasons that are leading to his departure, it does become more concerning. He strikes me as 'a leader', maybe i am wrong, but - we don't need any players of that ilk round our club right now ...

    Ah well, he’s a good pro and i’m Sure a future manager (not at City, he too old!) but the wailing and morning over his departure is a little OTT. Yes he was player of the year but let’s face it, he didn’t have much competition, in fact all he had to do was turn up and look interested.
    People forget that the season before he was understudy for Rory and was as likely to play leftback as centre half. He was deemed by Stuart as not one of the best two centre half’s at the club. With our new signings he’s back to being not in the starting 11.
    Odd decision not to have him on the bench however in the scheme of things it’s not the oddest, strangest or most bemusing decision MC has made this season. Good luck to him, hope he gets a good move.

    People talking about how the way fans are going on you'd think Killa was a ballon d'or winner or whatever.. just as with the Hendrie situation - spectacularly missing the point - not relevant how good he is (although I do believe he's one of our best centre backs) its how we've treated him we don't like.

    Correction @Ricc@Ricc we weren’t a club who shafted ppl. I am so damn angry reading that Killa has been shipped out in the most unseemly manner. We were told he is a true professional by Collins, no problem, and before a week is out he is on his way.

    I want these owners out!!’ I have not said this before, but I do not want to be associated with those who do not respect our heritage, or our principle’s of how to treat ppl.

    Thought he’d have been a dead cert to join Stuart and Rory at Scunny.

    absolutely. i want them out. they are destroying my enthusiasm for the club. I've never felt so... I dunno, detached from the club in this manner before. I actively don't particularly want to go and watch us anymore, I hate what we've become under Edin. this isn't Bradford City and we need to do something.

    Consistent performer, reliable , leagues above Nkp yet not near the team. Such a pile of sh*te, do not blame him seeking another team. Would fit into 75% of teams at this level

    We lack leaders on the pitch, so who is our centre back on the bench waiting to come on...?

    Reece.

    Staunton.

    Hamilton?

    I'm stunned, thought it would be Bayern, Juve or Madrid.

    Do you honestly believe that a similar situation hasn't happened before? IE before Rahic the Terrible?

    Players fall out with clubs and clubs fall out with players all the time. Whilst I am deeply unhappy with the way this club disrespects it’s own players, financially on paper this may make sense in the short term. ‘If’ we used the money freed to bring in a Reece Burke then overall it would be a good decision. But there are n’t many Reece Burke’s knocking about. If our team continues to fall apart, saving money and going younger just might prove to be another stupid decision. I hear Killa is a good professional and a leader in the dressing room. Good job we have loads of them! If O’Connor or McGowan suffer a long term injury thankfully we still have plenty of cover?? Still, as long as Edin wins his personal battles and shows everyone who is the boss we should all be happy.
